Sometimes it's amusing working where I'm working. People in the office seem to be genuinely intrigued by how we work, although they often look on perplexed. They ask lot's of questions, they survey our informative workspace and take the time to read our information radiators as they pass by. Occassionally, one person comes and stands outside our bullpen and gazes upon the hustle occurring within. It's great. I don't think they get Agile yet but they're interest encourages and motivates us. And what's gratifying is that they tell us how happy and impressed they are with the work we do. It's wonderful to feel valued and appreciated. And it's great that they see the business value being delivered.

The team played the XPGame the other night. That generated more interest amongst people in the office. Some of the business and management people have asked if we can run the XPGame for them. This will really help them to understand how and why we work the way we do. As the Chinese proverb says:
I hear and I forget,
I see and I remember,
I do and I understand.
